When writing your question

 

I'm currently  not able to :

 

- I do not recieve SMS anymore on my Blackberry

 

I'm currently able to :

 

- send SMS from the blackberry

- send  and receive MMS from the blackberry

- send and receive SMS if the SIM card is in another phone !

- send and receive e-mails with BES & BIS

 

What I already did test :

 

- pull out the battery

- wipe handled

- check the SMS gateway (it's correct)

- install new OS

- try to restore a backup

- deactivate reactivate BES

- compare settings (SMS) with one colleague

- update OS to the current one (previously I had former OS of 9700)

 

I almost checked all the things I was able to test, do you have any idea what else I could check ?

Is there any kind of SMS check/repair tool...

It's really a pain, because people are sending me SMS and I don't receive them...

 

thanks for your support and good ideas that might help...

 

Cheers

 

Sly

Re: Not receiving SMS anymore on my bold 9700

I just started having this same program  on my Blackberry Tour. I downloaded Crunch SMS just so I could receive them again. So weird and I have no clue how to fix it either.

Re: Not receiving SMS anymore on my bold 9700

Sly,

The following is not aplicable to all, but this could be checked by all of you:


Go to the firewall options and see if its been on and blocking sms.

Go to the main options -> Security -> Firewall and untick everything and disable it. Check to see if you are able to receive sms.

To my understanding this may be the problem. Please provide feedback.

Re: Not receiving SMS anymore on my bold 9700

But i do not use my firewall. I also checked for virus and maleware but everything is fine...i still can't send and receive outside my country. I can send mails to my own address and to all inside my country... But that's it.
